ACE proudly holds an annual, off-season Five-A-Side outdoor competition. It is available to players aged: 6-16, open seniors and >35 men and women.
Running since 2007 and open to anyone, this competition is now one of the largest in Brisbane with more than 85 teams competing across all ages. In 2010, the over 35 competition had more than 25 teams, providing a social, fun sporting experience for Mum's and Dad's, still keen to pull on their boots and enjoy a game of football with friends and work colleagues. The competition is open to players from all clubs and schools.
Why join in the fun?
1. Five-A-Side competition gives young players an opportunity to further apply their learning’s from the season before. We use a free flowing football game structure based on the European/South American model, which lets kids play without sideline coaching to help them mature into confident football player's for next season. All open and Over 35 games are played with qualified referees.
2. Playing football on grass during the off-season is perfect for retaining fitness levels, developing skills and minimising injuries associated with hard surfaces.
Our Five-A-Side competition was a great success in 2011.
